That guy in charge must have been crapping himself.. four failures and no common systems .. eeee

When he says "GC flight ... lock the doors" its literally bone chilling. Its the call out that everything from there forward is treated like a crime scene. All the audio, all the data, all the tapes and coms. Nothing leaves that room.

7:50 - This is when they knew it was over. The next 20 minutes were just face-saving play-acting

That woman saying they are taking some hits seems very lacks and lazy when it comes to accurately giving information to the FD. What do you mean by hits lady? I would have probably said that.

Wow when they turned the craft on the left wing it really made things go south fast - makes you wonder if they could have made it if they stayed on the right wing.

Reentry should of been never tried.another shuttle for rescue or soviet help was needed.

Director is a idiot.

Lab rats thst died for nasa. Nasa learned nothing from Challenger!

I remember watching TV and the reporter hoping that they would somehow come out of blackout after 15 minutes and I knew it was done.

What doomed them was turning over to the left. Should have flattened out for a short bit then turn over right again. Would have survived. This is what happ3ns when you follow the book too closely.

Jesus, woman want to be astronauts then make sure you can at least get the time right. Not even a whole minute in and she's already screwed the pooch. This is why men only were allowed to crew spacecraft in the 60's and 70's. We never learn from the smart folks. We just give in to all demands.

Women caused this

Get woke go broke

I think they knew

I guess I couldn't find it from my VR quest 2 last time but just found it this time. Its extra spectacular in VR headset as I can enjoy an immersive flight.

millions of tax dollars and yet the sensors are as the same as some chinese made sensors 😂

Lock the doors.

Part of the reason on why so much technical data on the damage and breakup progress existed for Columbia is that it was one of the early shuttles. It had several thousand additional sensors that were wired all over the shuttle to collect performance data. Those sensors that were not part of the telemetry data that was sent back over radio communications was just recorded on memory storage devices. After the crash they were able to recover those storage devices and it gave an incredible level of detail on what was happening inside of the wing. With the fractured leading edge the superheated plasma entered the wing and melted structures, lines and wiring harnesses. Many of the sensor failures were not due to heat reaching those individual sensors but the loss of cabling that brought the data back in to the spacecraft, through the wing structure. Eventually the loss of structural integrity in the wing did cause it to 'burn off' and break free. Then the spacecraft began to tumble rapidly and that broke apart the ship in to several large chunks that tumbled at their own rate. The hotter-than-a-blast-furnace plasma entered the cabin and while the crew was dying from asphyxiation, anoxia and the incredible gee forces that were buffeting them from side to side in their seats and harnesses their remains were also burned terribly. Some of the remains that were recovered were fragmented (arms, legs, head) removed by the forces and sometimes left in strange places (like a torso on the middle of a highway). There was no way then, and no way now, that the breakup could of been survivable. They were moving at around fourteen thousand miles per hour, in superheated plasma and exposed to all of the trauma that happens when anything made of metal is torn to pieces.

“Any commonality?” Um no, except maybe that foam strike engineers were so concerned about.

Is the audio out of sync or did they really remain this calm at 12:40

they sound a lil sleep deprived

As an aeronautics engineer and test pilot, I find it impossible to look away from the staggering amount of evidence that presented itself days before this repeated NASA failure. Mind boggling.

The operation room knew what was about to happen. They were praying for miracle. Miracle didn't happen.

I just got home from work after night shift, eating a burger and just happened to catch this live in TV. I already saw the first one as a kid in school so this was like "wtf"

theres a clip some where aa crew member said i feel the heat

Fake news 🤡🤡

CIA operation. The world is a giant stage.

12:00 é forte ver através da simulação, as peças se desfazendo Descansem em paz, heróis que nunca voltaram

>payload specialist from the israel space agency RIP, I didn't know this was planned by the same team as 9/11

16,400 mph….. dang….

Ain't nobody fck with us, they knew before hand that they were doomed. They are sacrificed.

Like so many tragedies, on paper everything looked perfect, but in the real world even the best laid plans fall apart. I'll let myself out.

"Com check..." Uh, seriously? Like the lady said, "core temp is off scale." If the crew was still alive, "we're comin' in hot! Like, skin melting off our charred bones, hot!" Keep them com lines open 🙄

NASA committed homicide, straight up

They felt nothing, instant death.

Not sure why this was on my KZfaq autoplay. Sadness.

Whar a tragedy I remenber, unfortunelly they never saw the hole under the wing made by a ridiculous little piece of foam of the booster when they lifted off, if they had see it, maybe they could be saved.

12:09 Question: Why did that AJ-10 engine separate from Columbia?

12:22 "Not too bad" And then a second later, the worst thing happened

As an F14 pilot, I remember I was retracting the wings when I saw the bright flash in the sky. I thought we were going to war. Ill never forget the sinking feeling when I found out it was the shuttle.

Here’s me skipping your video after pausing to type this hiiiii nobody cares that your fishing for likes and other bs on YT with things your clueless off regardless ohhh almost forgot ‘ IN REAL TIME ‘

defund NASA

12:30

I didn't hear it here but didn't one of the crew at one point say, "I can feel the heat".

NASA had the courtesy to at least tell them that debris hit the wing, but then told them it was harmless. I'll bet anything as soon as those sensors went offline, Col. Husband 100% knew they were doomed and NASA lied. Literally hundreds of people should've been thrown in prison for this. HUNDREDS. Every single senior management who was shown this. The people who ignored Boeing's own damage assessment model that outright said "it hit the wing at 600 mph, there's no chance it didn't break it and you will kill everybody if they reenter". Linda Ham should've been thrown in Butcher Bay for her endless sabotage of the damage team who kept trying to let them know. Every single bureaucrat and paper-pusher who blocked them from letting the shuttle crew EVA to assess the damage. Instead literally nothing happened to anyone, because the United States is and always has been a comical joke where there's zero accountability for anything in government.

unfortunately it doesn't seem like g-forces would have knocked them out when they lost control.

Did they actually die? No parachute no?

About 10 minutes from the house lol

Just like Challenger, these people could have been saved.

As soon as I saw that Red Stare CRACKER piloting the Colombia I knew they were in trouble
